The Glitch

I want to thank everyone for their patience on the loading hiccup when you first enter the site or refresh. Some good news. The problem was finally identified and if you use Mozilla there is no more glitch. If you use Internet Explorer, it is better, and hopefully by Monday will be 100%.

Full Frontal Friday

Yes that's right boys and girls it's time again for that feature that becomes more and more popular each week. I know, I know, who would have guessed that celebrity peen would be so damn popular but it is. Anyway, I'm fairly sure there is something for absolutely everyone inside. If there isn't, hey, I'll give you a refund. Now, if you are of legal age, blah, blah, blah, then click here.


Antonio Sabato Jr.

Four For Friday

#1 & 2- So this C list television actress with A list name recognition was supposed to star in an old family standby. Everyone was excited to have her on board and thought everything was great. Then at the filming of the promos for the show, our actress was a no-show. Apparently she was too tired to come in and film, but would try and come in a few days or perhaps they could just film out at her place. Whatever was more convenient for her. The producers, instead of putting up with crap and creating some kind of diva monster, cut her loose from the project right then and brought in an old nemesis instead who has been a perfect angel.

#3 - What former NY Yankees pitcher and still in the major leagues had an affair with a teammate's wife, and then later with that same teammate's girlfriend. (This has nothing to do in any way, shape, or form with Alex Rodriguez except who knows, maybe he slept with them both as well. I don't know.)

#4 - Apparently random acts of vandalism against her ex's stuff is the way this B- television and C list film actress is getting her revenge on the guy she dumped, but says she didn't. No, not Megan Fox. Think meaner and older. Not that old.

Your Turn

It has been awhile since I have done this because I was running out of ideas and wanted to give everyone something to find to plug or promote. Anyway, I have been plugging this book to everyone lately and would love to hear about what everyone else is reading. I know that whatever we pick will be better than Oprah at least. It can be anything. I don't care if it is Slash, which by the way is a great book, or some tell-all or poems, or whatever. I liked this book about Shel Silverstein because I knew of course about his children's books and a few of his #1 songs, but there was so much more I didn't know. If you love his books or songs or have no idea who the hell he is, you will love this book.

Random Photos Part One

Carole King - Hollywood, FL
It has been a long time since I have seen Amy Irving. If I remember correctly she is the only actress who has been nominated for a Razzie and an Academy Award for the same performance in the same year. Yentl.
The makes me laugh photo of the day goes to Avid Merrion. This is a guy I would love to go drinking with.
First time appearance for Eric Etibari. Since it is his first time, we will go ahead and overlook his tribute to Color Me Badd.

I never thought I would actually say this. Well, I guess it is not actually saying when you are typing, because that would just be strange. Carrie Underwood on vacation by herself. I have looked at photos from every angle, and she is alone, on the beach, surrounded by people who don't even know or care who she is. To make up for that she then posted a sign in the sand that said American Idol Winner.
Three guys from C.S.I. A blind item magnet of a show, yet none of these guys has been one. From L to R - A.J. Buckley, Carmine Giovinazzo, and Eddie Cahill.
My French is rusty. Actually it is non-existent except for the word alcool. But, I believe the title of Carla Bruni's new CD is "As If Nothing Had Happened." Well let me tell you stuff did happen, so don't go pretending it didn't.
I was under the impression that no one ever got rejected from Flavor Of Love. Apparently I was wrong as Beetlejuice has proved to me with his lovely collection of fine upstanding women.
It's a phone people. A phone. And guess what? It will still be there tomorrow and the next day. I know you can't wait to impress the people in the Hamptons this weekend, but it is a phone. You don't think people in London would act so crazy and stupid do you? Do you?

Ummm. Guess they would. My bad.
Freddie McGregor - Brooklyn
The Entourage boys filming on Adrian Grenier's 32nd birthday. Happy birthday Adrian.
Who knew Eva Longoria could read?

Today's fashion disaster goes to, Kabir who is joined by Roisin Murphy who always looks amazing.

Today's runner-up who will take over the throne should Kabir not live up to the standards I impose subjectively is Kinder Uggagini which I think translates to Kids Shouldn't Wear Uggs.
Continuing the randomness with Jade Jagger.
Julie Hagerty is always smiling. Always. I really do love her. Just so funny and doesn't get the credit for just throwing perfect lines out there to be hit.

Lil Wayne - Austin

First time appearance for Luis Salgado.
Kelly King - Brooklyn
k.d. lang - Berlin

Rascal Flatts - New York

Nelly Furtado - Dresden
So the guy on the left is Miles Siggins and he is the stylist for American Idol. I know, I know. But hey at least he is with Orlando Jones. Love him.
See it works. Seduced.
Michael Bolton - Brooklyn
Hey Melbourne Australia. You are getting Wicked and LA is losing it. You need to go see it.

So after all the success the Danish Royalty had with their MTV Cribs style show, The Netherlands had to take the plunge.
Styx - Seattle
When people say smirk, or having a fake smile, I think Soledad O'Brien exemplifies it rather well. That is the most patronizing look I have ever seen.
You want randomness? How about Stephen Collins and Drew Lachey in Chicago doing promos for their show.

Daily Mirror Blind Item

Which star boasts of his family drug connections? He looks squeaky clean on set but sorts out all of his mates on a night out...

Samantha Ronson Thinks It's Serious

How do you know when a relationship is serious here in the year 2008? Do you call friends and tell them? Do you throw a little party? Well, of course you could do all those things but then you would actually have to interact with someone. That all seems to germy so instead what you do is change your Facebook page. Well apparently Samantha Ronson changed hers today from Single to In A Relationship. Wow, I guess she wanted to make sure. Either that or Ellen and Portia broke up overnight and Samantha is praying.

So, apparently she has left the with who part of the In A Relationship blank. Maybe she is hoping her special someone will make the first move and then she can reciprocate. It can be like "you hang up." "No, you hang up first." "Let's hang up together."

Now in this day and age, you really don't get that as much. You do get Facebook updates though and it was just done, so maybe they had a really good night or that Samantha was just really lazy and only got around to it right now. Well, it doesn't really matter. I'm actually happy for her and them and I think all of you should be too. Samantha has obviously helped keep Lindsay on the straight and narrow and should allow all of us to focus on other disasters in the making.

Do you think Samantha would DJ her own wedding? I know what I'm getting the happy couple if they do get married. A nice brand new bottle of Blue Seduction For Women. If it's good enough for Melanie Griffith it's good enough for everyone.

Lets Make Fun Of Kneepads

Here is a "story" that People Magazine had on their site today under the heading of news. You then click and are taken to style. Whatever. It's an ad, not a "story." To make it more palatable, I have added some extra comments after theirs.

If there’s one thing Antonio Banderas knows, it’s the art of seduction.

While I'm sure he does, lets face it. How much seduction was needed to land Melanie Griffith?

And while wearing that Zorro mask alone is more than enough to make some of us swoon, the actor is taking things to new levels with his latest fragrance, Blue Seduction for Women.

When you actually use the word swoon in an article you know that you are pretty much reading a piece of crap. In a book, sure, or maybe, just maybe in a lengthy magazine piece about the 60's, but there are no other exceptions. Do you get the feeling that he could have called his perfume GHB and they still would be gushing.

At yesterday’s launch event for scent in N.Y.C., Antonio brought in the cast of the Tony Award-winning musical In the Heights to sing the scent’s praises — or at least entertain the gathered crowd.

The gathered crowd consisted of people who were waiting patiently for the Circle Line tour.

But it was the troupe’s final number that really dazzled.

Dazzled? See swoon above and take off that damn glitter, you are embarrassing yourself.

Antonio jumped from his seat next to wife Melanie Griffith, ran to the stage and joined the singers to show off his own impressive skills.

The fact that he was able to remove his chain and collar that quickly in order to perform really does show off impressive skills.

Your wait to be seduced by the violet, rose, and jasmine notes of Antonio’s fruity fragrance will be over soon.

The publicist should have checked that fruity thing over before letting that go to print. What about the notes of haven't had a hit in a few years or the sweat of knowing your wife stays awake staring at you all night. Where is that in the bottle?

It hits stores in September, with one dollar from the sale of each bottle going directly to the charity Broadway Equity Fights AIDS.

Do me a favor. Don't give Melanie anymore money. The bottle will probably cost $50 at least and they are going to vie a $1 to charity. Just send $10 to the charity and call it a day. Seriously one dollar? I mean how greedy can one person be? I was just guessing at $50 which would be 2% going to charity, but it will probably cost $75-100 in reality. Is Antonio that desperate for money that he can only give a $1 a bottle? That seems kind of sad and depressing that Melanie has gone through his money that quickly.

True Or False?

The National Enquirer is running a story this week that I'm kind of questioning. Hey, that's two weeks running, but again, I still feel they get 95% of their stuff right.

This week's edition of I'm not so sure is about Katie Holmes, because honestly, I think we all need more Katie and Tom in our lives. Not actually in our lives as in touching or coming in close contact, but afar, from a distance where we are safe from whatever energy they give off or suck out of you.

Tom was redoing Valkyrie for the 680th time at a church in Pasadena when Suri and Katie were ordered to drop by and pretend it was spontaneous. At the church was a playground. Suri, still being a kid and not having all of her natural emotions and desires snuffed out of her yet wanted to of course play on said playground.

Well, Katie said she could but to wait in the car until she sanitized the place. Katie then went over each surface with sanitizing wipes and was comforting Suri by saying that she was almost done. After wiping off every surface, then and only then was Suri allowed to play on the playground. Presumably she was allowed to actually walk to the slides and swings and was not carried to each piece of equipment and placed on it. I mean lord only knows what kind of germs are in the sand or dirt or grass that could get on her shoes or on her skin.

So, is this true? I mean Katie seems to be slowly going off her rocker, but is she really Joan Crawford reincarnated? I don't know. I mean is it because of the germs from other kids or because it was a church playground and Xenu would forbid touching the equipment without cleaning it? I mean the sanitizing thing in an outdoor area seems overboard. Every kid is going to reach down and touch something and get dirty and just don't see the germs in an outdoor setting like that.

Here is what I think happened. Katie saw there was mud or dirt or jelly on a swing, wiped it off and the story got blown out of proportion. What do you think?

Peaches Geldof Is Forgiven

Peaches may be a crackhead, but at least she has the guts to interview someone properly when given the job to do so. Maybe it was the crack that pushed her to test the boundaries of what you can get away with in an interview, but as far as I'm concerned she should be the permanent host of Larry King Live, and if they say she's too young, then I say f**k you, Larry is way too old.

So, why do I feel this sudden love for Peaches? Well she was working for ITV2 in the UK and interviewed the winner of Strictly Come Dancing which in the US is Dancing With The Has Beens. Anyway, the winner of the show was Alesha Dixon. Alesha is a singer/model/do anything who became famous for being in a girl group. She later married a guy named MC Harvey.

She and MC got divorced after MC started having sex with a woman named Javine Hylton who was one of Alesha's friends. Apparently this affair was discovered when Javine's boyfriend caught Javine and MC having sex in where else? A toilet. So, this was always just a rumor.

So, Peaches was having her interview, and just cruising along making Alesha comfortable, when going against her suck up producer asked the following question:

"How did you feel when your husband Harvey was caught f***ing Javine in a toilet?"

Apparently Alesha didn't like the question and stopped the interview. She then later complained to the head of ITV2 about Peaches' question, and Peaches in general. Hey Alesha, as far as I am concerned, it is a fair question. Every time anyone has ever asked Alesha a question about anything, she has always denied it and then when proven true looks stupid. To me, this was an opportunity for Alesha to get her side of the story out and Peaches was just letting her have the forum to do it.

See, Peaches is the right person for this because even if she skewers someone, she kind of gets a free pass because of what she has been through. I say give her a microphone and some scandalous celebrities and let her at them. Just make sure you hide the crack.

Well I Could Have Told You He Loves Nuts

So all week long there was story after story about how the police in Oakland, Ontario had pulled over David Lee Roth for speeding, only to find that he was about to die from an allergic reaction to some nuts he ate. The policemen rushed him to a hospital and saved his life. The world was focused on how they saved a legend.

The thing is, none of it is true. David Lee Roth hasn't even been in Ontario this year. He did spend three days in Quebec earlier in the month, but never got behind the wheel of a car, and said that he never drives when he is on tour.

Oh, and he said the only thing he is allergic to is criticism. No food allergies. So, then who in the hell did the police stop in Oakland? Is there actually a constable in Ontario named Chris Thompson who was interviewed by local media and who passed along the story.

Here is what Constable Chris had to say about the stranger: "The guy stuck out like a sore thumb. He was wearing a little silk scarf and flashy clothing - it's not something you see in Oakland too often."

Maybe it was Sammy Hagar. It makes sense, because as you know, he can't drive 55.

Ted C. Blind Item

Oh, this is a cruel town, and I can be an equally snitty columnist, sorry. You try growing up a fruit in Texas and get back to me. Until then, let’s dish up Pickled Fickle, shall we? See, Mr. F’s not in a great way these days. Career ain’t what it used to be, and his bedroom notches certainly aren’t what they used to tally up to, either. And take it from moi, all this mattress and life sadness has nothin’ to do with P.F.’s split with his honey recently. Ol’ P-man was certainly stepping out on his lady long before their recent bust up, I assure you. But like a lot of closeted stars in this town, P.F.got used to having it his way—meaning the gal and all the guys he wanted. Until...gravity and genes set in. And I’m not only talkin’ getting old here, hons, I’m talking the whole he-bang, as in the ever-awful three W’s: weight, wrinkles and wondering (as in what went wrong).

P.F.’s got those so big time right now—in fact, he’s very nearly delirious with the three W’s. He actually said to a pal whose shoulder he was crying on not long ago, “Maybe I should just go back to hooking.” Oh, darlin’. I dare say you’re in the category now where you have to dole out the green, babycakes. You been smokin’ somethin’ you picked up below the border? Damn, Sweets. Look in the friggin’ mirror.

Today's Blind Items

Have a baby and then lose your husband? This A list singer recently had a baby, but it seems that the little bundle of joy was also just delaying the inevitable. The only thing that held them together was the pregnancy. Now that the pregnancy is over, so is the marriage.

Random Photos Part One

There were really no truly worthy candidates to grab the top spot today. So, the appearance of Bode Miller on the top is simply a matter of chance.
Bell Biv Devoe - New York
I know Austin Chick has never been in the photos before and as a director would normally not be, but I just love the guy's name. He has a ready made porn star name. No need to combine the address and dog's name. Saves a great deal of time at parties.
So the woman on the left is another Ronson. This time Charlotte. The woman on the right? Guess. Come on. Give up? How about Shoshanna Lonstein. Do you know she is 33 now? 33? I remember when she was like 18 or something and doing Jerry Seinfeld. I'm getting old.

Celine Dion in a bikini. If that isn't frightening enough, she has a hose. Attention residents there will be no water today because Celine has used it all. Again.
Hard to believe that Bobby Trendy still gets invited places and that I get desperate enough for photos to post him.
Lots of athletes today. Here is Ben Roethlisberger.
Not exactly the monumental sand castles from we saw in Belgium a few weeks ago, but in my mind a better promotion than a pie hole eating contest.
If you notice the backdrop, then you will have seen that Bobby Trendy was at the same party that Emmanuelle Chriqui attended. Feel sorry for her. Nicky Hilton was also there. Don't feel sorry for her. I hope Bobby followed her around the entire night screaming "Nicky!"

It's always nice to see former Vice-Presidents out there plugging products.
Damn Dave Navarro wears a lot of makeup. Notice the woman checking out his ass.
Almost the top spot. Almost. The guy is Harold Kuhn. The laughs are what makes this day easier. Thanks Harold.
Coco Sumner - London

There will be more photos of this event tomorrow. The guests are still arriving so there aren't very many available yet. Jenifer Hudson looks really good.

So, you know I gave that stylist in Sydney a bunch of crap a few weeks ago for designing and wearing that outfit that I said would never sell. Guess I was wrong.
John Cleese is already moving on to the next wife.
Jimmy Barnes - Melbourne
Feist - Brooklyn

Just in case you haven't seen the promos on Bravo every four and a half seconds, Jo & Slade have a new reality show.

The only guest other than family and the guy having sex with her that came to Jessica's birthday party is Vivica Fox. She came because Jessica is the only woman who has a worse career as an actress. Makes her feel good to say hi to Jessica.
You probably don't know any of these people, but from L to R are Julia Roitfeld, Jeremy Kost, and guest. I love the and guest. I especially love them when they look like this. When you are the and guest, you need to bring the cigarette smoking (even though banned), drinking, cussing, loud mouthed, don't care what anyone thinks guest. That is a party. You can also bring Luenell. Either works well.
Been wondering about John O'Hurley? Well wonder no more.
Looks like Josh Hartnett knows how to win friends and influence people wherever he goes. Check out the guy in the background.

Lisa Bonet and her two kids. Yes, that is Zoe back there somewhere. So basically that is about a six foot purse.

The drinking really helps to clarify some things.
More Josh and look who he brought with him. Interesting.
So, Kevin Costner doesn't look that great, but for once in about 20 years I want to see a film he is in. Go figure.
Jason Taylor. Sorry about the angle, but this is the only one he took.
So, imagine you are 5 and you are in the Barnes & Noble in Las Vegas. Just minding your own business. Reading Thomas The Tank Engine or Dora or perhaps something more edgy like Mrs. Piggle Wiggle, when a dude in a wheelchair comes rolling up looking like this. Do you think you would scream and run crying to mommy? Well Michael Jackson spent the majority of his two hour visit to the store in the children's section. Yes, his kids were there also, but they were off to the side. Michael was just rolling along and reading children's books.

This is as good as Michael Imperioli has looked in awhile.
Margaret Cho - Los Angeles
Well at least she looks normal. Still wouldn't touch her with a ten foot pole, but it is good to know that Mischa Barton is still capable of dressing normally.
Lake Bell just because, hell it's Lake Bell and she looks good.
A Barber twin. This one is Ronde.

That is a whole lotta bike, but Queen Latifah is a whole lotta woman.
The man responsible for American Idol. Do with him what you wish.
A whole bag full of DNA samples. See, even when Maury Povich is on vacation he wants us to know he's ready to make somebody a daddy or let them off the hook.
And he brought along Connie.

Good Deed Or Good Publicity?

This is what my cynicism has done to me. Now, I'm not even sure if a celebrity really wants to help someone who was close to death or if they are just doing it to try and repair their image. Bon Jovi is playing New York this week and Richie Sambora has decided to use his time in New York to bring attention to the plight of Kelly Mahon who has had problems with a brain cyst. It is a tragic story and deserving of some attention, especially considering that Richie and the girl both attended the same high school.

The problem I'm having is that if it were someone else, I would be incline to believe they were being noble and give them a pat on the back and maybe even the top spot in the photos. Instead, what I am left with is conflicting emotions because I feel like Richie or more likely Richie's manager said he needed some positive press so they found a sick kid who needs help and so Richie goes on the air and auctions off some tickets to a show and a chance to meet him whoo hoo!

Make sure if you win the tickets that you bring a photo of Richie out on the beach last year with Denise. I prefer the ones where he looks like a lobster with a big fat belly. Just have him autograph that one.

So, do we believe Richie or is this a ploy to give him some good publicity. I just think that what he should do is devote some time or energy to a cause like MADD or some other project related to drunk driving, or driving drunk with your kids in the backseat. Something like that as opposed to just finding a random girl who is sick and helping her. He hasn't been doing it in any other city, despite I am sure just as many critically ill kids in those cities. He seems to have saved this just for NY with all of its possible publicity.

Kelly, I hope everything works out for you ok. I'm glad you are getting some funds to help pay for your care despite the fact that Richie is an ass. Hopefully other people in NY will be moved and help her out.

Daily Mirror Blind Item Part Two

Which model is so jealous of her rival (and former best friend), she got a designer pal to wreck her catwalk clothes ahead of a major show?

Want To Eat Some Pie Hole?

Sounds obscene doesn't it? Well apparently beginning this week if you are in Orange County or going to be in the OC you can go down to the OC Fair and eat some pie hole. And guess what? The fine folks at Disney are sponsoring the pie hole eating competition. I wonder if Miley Cyrus will be the pie hole eating judge. No, that's crossing the line. It actually isn't Disney itself, but rather ABC that is sponsoring the pie hole eating.

You don't often see pie hole eating contests simply because there are idiots like me who could go on for paragraphs about pie hole eating and how it sounds like an activity better left to the bedroom than a public fairgrounds. Disney on the other hand would love for you to all come down to the OC Fair and eat pie holes in public. Not donut holes because that is just food, but rather come on down to the fair. Bring the kids and wife and eat some pie hole.

The cast of Pushing Daisies will be there to cheer you on, and maybe if they get into it, they will also join in with you in eating some pie holes. Nothing like getting together with your favorite cast members to eat pie holes together. For dessert you can have some schwetty balls.

Not A Pleasant Sight

So, imagine if you will that you are sitting in the visitor room in prison. It's been awhile since you have seen your kids or your parents or your significant other. When, then out of the corner of your eye you see this scab infested woman with half her teeth gone stand up, lift up her shirt and press her naked breasts up against the glass dividing you and your visitors.

Nice huh? Well apparently the rumor that if you are in prison long enough any breasts look good, is just that. A rumor. So, when Amy Winehouse decided to flash her breasts to Blaaaaaaaaaaaake at her most recent visit and then press them up against the glass so he could get a good look at her infections, the reactions from the other prisoners ranged from "not pleasant" to "disgusting" to "awful" and that Amy seemed completely out of it.

I'm sure that Amy isn't the first person to flash her breasts to a guy in prison, and I'm fairly sure that hers were not the worst breasts in the world to be flashed. Fairly sure. Somewhat confident. Reasonably confident. Come on. They couldn't have been the worst. I just think that if you combine the effect of the breasts, the squishing against the glass partition and Amy up close, that it is probably a bit traumatic for anyone.

See, all of us are used to seeing Amy in print or on video. What if you were one foot away from her? In person? How terrified would you be? How scary would it look? OK, now you know why the prisoners don't want her to come back.

I Swear We're Together

Brian Austin Green sounds like guy who just can't believe his girlfriend may be off doing another dude. You might not have seen the report last week that Megan Fox and Brian were done. It's okay if you didn't because you probably don't look at every story in the entire world and beg for a Megan Fox story. When there is one you probably don't give a crap. Perfectly understandable which is why I'm here.

Anyway, the story goes that Megan sent out a letter to business associates saying she was too young to get married and that she and Brian were done. I know what you are thinking and I keep asking myself the same thing. Did anyone know that Megan could write and that she had business associates?

Well this week Brian Austin Green has been running around to every media outlet saying it isn't true and that she loves him, she really does. No one would listen except for TV Guide which is practically the same thing as no one. The only thing worse would be if it were TV Guide in Espanol online version for the blind where Erik Estrada reads the listings and interviews.

"We're solid. We've lived together for three years. We have tattoos of each other's names."

Yeah, well I know a whole bunch of people who have tattoos of names from relationship after relationship. It doesn't mean anything except to show that you are a big idiot and that you should learn after the first tattoo.

"We have more time away from each other right now than we'd like."

Yeah. That's because in what most people would consider shocking, she can actually find work and thus is employed on a more consistent basis than 90210 boy.

I can just see Brian running around town begging someone to listen to him and believe him and at the same time begging Megan to call someone or give an interview or tell someone they are still together. Kind of like when George took everyone to the warehouse looking for the party and everyone was gone. This whole thing with Brian would probably also be sad and I would feel sorry for him, except that he is also saying things like they are going to have a kid soon. Well the last time he got some woman knocked up I think was Vanessa Marcil and he left her shortly thereafter when Megan Fox landed on his radar, so I don't have much sympathy for him.

What If It Weren't Tom Cruise?

So immediately after Nicole Kidman's baby news became public, apparently Tom Cruise called her and sent her enough flowers to fill her entire hospital room. To me that seems kind of nice except if you decide to be cynical and critical about the whole thing which is basically what I do, so lets get started.

Now, I admit that I know next to nothing about Scientology and their practices, but from what I have read, isn't Nicole Kidman considered to be an SP? In other words, isn't she a person who Tom is supposed to never talk to again, or until at least Xenu comes back and gives him a bj? I mean there must be some cutoff right?

Anyway, so Tom violated whatever rules Scientology has about that thing. I was under the impression that is the reason that her kids never get to see her either. Since they are Scientology and she left Scientology without doing what it is you are supposed to do to leave, they can't have anything to do with her.

From what I've heard and read, if someone else in the "Church" did this they would be in huge trouble and hooked up to the e-meter or be forced to watch Battlefield Earth and Far And Away on a continuous loop until they begged for someone to kill them. So, how come Tom Cruise just gets to ignore the rules? It doesn't seem right to know that people have been punished and separated from their families because they are SP, but Tom can call her, send her flowers and do so with impunity.

So, while I appreciate the gesture of sending flowers because it was not done with publicity in mind, it is offset by the fact that he did something that every other person in Scientology would be punished for and he isn't.

Like He Ever Wanted The Kids

So, what do you do to a guy that cheats on you upwards of 35 times during your marriage including with a teenager that he pays off with your money to keep silent? Oh, and for good measure he also abused your daughter and spent $40,000 a year of your money to watch porn. Why you pay him $2.1M is what you do.

So, basically, Peter Cook is laughing all the way to the bank. Does anyone really think he gives a crap about his kids? All he cared about was the money and he got it. Sure, he only gets to visit the kids when mom says it is ok, but he wasn't going to see them anyway. Christie Brinkley gets the kids and the properties but has to write a check to Peter for a couple of million.

Now Peter is free to move on to his latest woman who has even more money than Christie. He can kick back, get her to pay for some porn, cheat on her if they get married, and when they divorce get her for some money as well. So basically Peter is just a man whore. Something to be proud of I'm sure. Getting money from Christie in exchange for giving up something he didn't want anyway must have just given him the biggest smirk last night. What an ass.

Which singer, who claims to be a real family girl, is actually only close to her dad because he buys her drugs?

Today's Blind Items

Wow. This is a tough one to classify. It is almost where I want to give you the name just to see how you would classify her. The problem is that she has done so many things besides acting. Lets go with B- list, but definitely A list name recognition just for her name alone. She isn't gorgeous, but she is cute, and has a nice personality. I think the crew on one of her movies would agree that she definitely has personality at night. See, that is when she starts hitting the J&B. Yep. Big fan of it and when she starts drinking she also starts screwing. No need to hide or pretend or anything. She will go straight up to whatever crew member strikes her fancy that night and ask them point blank if they want to have sex with her. Goes on all during filming. In the mornings though. Different personality completely. Horrible hangovers and lots of extra makeup. She is married, but most people don't realize it and she is currently dating someone openly.

Random Photos Part One

One of the best people in the entire world. Cicely Tyson. The woman is just incredibly sweet and when I saw her photo she just had to go on top.
Before I saw the photo of Cicely, it was going to be Lee Majors and Lindsay Wagner on top, because, really, you just don't see that much bionics in one room anymore. If you have NetFlix, go to the watch instantly tab, and then go to The Rockford Files Season One. She was in the first episode. Gorgeous.
First time appearance for Charlie Cox. It is just amazing to me that after all of the photos it is still easy to find a bunch of people who have never been in before.

It is going to kind of feel like a Love Boat episode because there were so many past stars out yesterday and doing press for Hallmark. If they actually made a Love Boat show, I guarantee you Corbin Bernsen would do it.
When is the last time you saw Ben Vereen? Check out the dreads. He actually looks younger than he did 20 years ago. Tenspeed and Brown Shoe anyone?
Buckcherry - Jones Beach, NY

So from what I gather this is kind of like MTV Cribs, but Danish royalty style.

With all of the Mamma Mia! photos I have been showing, I somehow passed over Dominic Cooper.
Chloe Sevigny and her boyfriend James Ransone. FYI, he is no stranger to full frontal so they should get along well.
Christian de la Fuente does a little role playing with a cow. Hey, whatever it takes. I don't judge.
The thing is, there was no wind. Claire Danes' hair is actually doing that on its own. Guess it was Hugh Dancy's doing.
This photo of George Clooney was probably taken from about a mile away. I'm guessing that is why it looks like he is drunk off his ass.

Oh. Emily Mortimer. She is one of my favorites. You might not have seen her, but she was the "other woman" in 30 Rock, and she is the final piece of the puzzle in my theory that Notting Hill and Four Weddings And A Funeral are in fact the same film with just a few minor changes.
Surprisingly I think this is a first time appearance for Eriq La Salle.
Daphne Zuniga. Hey if you didn't like her in Melrose Place at least she was in a John Cusack film. I know, I know, but she was in The Sure Thing. So, right there you have to love her forever.
Donna Mills completed the smile after a two hour effort.


Gwyneth Paltrow doing her Victoria Beckham impression.

See?
And the obligatory is she pregnant photo.
So here you have piddily diddily and the other guy is actually named Guy. It is Guy Oseary who was fired by Lenny Kravitz a few weeks ago and so to get back at Lenny he started the rumors about C-Rod and Lenny to help Madonna who he manages sell tickets on her tour. Presumably now we can expect Doody to be thrown into the mix as well.
I think it is always a nice touch when actors bring props to the red carpets. Here is Gyton Grantley and some money at the premiere of The Bank Job.

When I think of Sally Homemaker, I'm not thinking Jamie Pressley. In fact, I think she has come out and said she doesn't like anything domestic at all. So, the whole Purex spokesperson thing only makes sense if you think there were a couple of guys at the ad agency who saw Poison Ivy 2 and said to themselves they wanted a shot at Jamie. Lo and behold she is your new spokesperson.

I'm just not sure what it is. Oh, I know I could make some kind of sex toy joke, but seriously, I have no clue.
As a designer your first thought shouldn't be, "hey, let me design a dress that looks like someone is lifting their shirt and showing off their breasts for Mardi Gras beads."

Lee Tergesen is another first timer.

Katie Lee Joel is one of the few women that Peter Cook did not sleep with in New York. Probably not for a lack of trying though.
So, I thought I would give Kellan Lutz one more shot because that last outfit was a little unfair, but honestly he still looks like a guy who gets his ass kicked on a regular basis.
Jane Seymour and Wedding Crashers. Brilliant career move on her part.
Jason Statham just because I always like his suits.
Hey, here's a brilliant idea. Lets market lip gloss to the under 5 crowd.

Its been too long huh? Well here is some Ryan Gosling for you.
Yet another first time guy. Raoul Bova this time.
Meredith Baxter. Still looks angry doesn't she?
This device Ludacris is wearing allows him to speak to Xenu directly.

More Proof That People Uses Kneepads

There was an interesting little blurb in the NY Daily News today about why People didn't get the exclusive on Drew Barrymore's breakup with Justin Long. Apparently Drew was upset that People put her on the cover of the magazine a few weeks ago while wearing a bikini. That's a nice little factoid the Daily News got, but it is what wasn't explored that I care about most. Why was Drew upset? Was it negative? Not at all. In face her publicist praised the piece saying it was "completely positive." Then why was she so upset?

(The story was) "just not needed on our end at that time." On your end at the time? What? So Drew was ticked that People didn't get her permission prior to publication? I'm assuming from the comments of her publicist that it is standard practice for them to call People, tell them a story and have People print it verbatim. Gasp! People isn't a news magazine? Shocker! See, this is why I call them Kneepads Magazine. They do and print whatever publicists want them to print at the time they say to print it, and in exchange get exclusives which are only one side of the story. Rarely do you see People ever day anything negative about anyone because these exclusives would dry up. Who cares? Do some reporting. Do some news. Don't be a suckup. Customers for the most part who fork over money to buy your magazine think they are getting real news and not just some fluff piece that a publicist spoon fed to the magazine. The public thinks they are getting scoops and insider information, but it is carefully vetted first to make sure that at no time does the celebrity ever look bad.

I would wager that when People heard what Drew's publicist had to say they called crying like a kid at a Michael Jackson sleepover and begged for forgiveness. They probably promised enough ass kissing and enough covers that we as "everyday people" will believe that Drew Barrymore is the second coming. They then got on the Kneepads Hotline to the decrepit one and told Larry King that Drew Barrymore was going to be on the show everyday for two weeks until the entire world knows how perfect she is. Larry, who kept confusing Drew Barrymore with John Barrymore agreed though.

Sample questions from Larry to Drew:

Why do so many people in the world think you are the greatest movie star in the world?

You got your start in silent films right?

How many times have you healed the crippled? Was Angelina Jolie with you?

So, the next time you peruse a Kneepads Magazine at the checkout stand, just realize who is calling the shots.

Florence Henderson Thinks Peter Knight Is Divorce Court Bound

As Florence Henderson has aged she has certainly got more wacky, but one thing she and I agree on is that Christopher Knight and Adrianne Curry are getting divorced. Not now, but soon. Very soon. Florence was doing press for her new Hallmark film and wouldn't even refer to Adrianne by name. Classic. Instead, Florence referred to her as "the person on the Surreal Life." I love it. Not the winner of ANTM or any other project that Adrianne dreams up inside her head, but rather a person who was on a show for two weeks that ended several years ago.

Florence, who is a licensed hypnotherapist went on My Fair Brady. I remember that episode. You could just see that she hated Adrianne with a passion, and did everything she could to talk Christopher out of being with her. But, Christopher decided to go ahead and get engaged and that decision kills Florence Henderson just a little bit more everyday. You hear that Peter? You are killing your mom.

Since that time, the couple has not asked Florence to come back for more counseling, but she does say,"maybe I will counsel the divorce." You just have to love this woman.

Denise Richards Leaving LA

Today is a good day. Actually it is a great day and I want to thank the people of Hidden Hills for making it such a great day. If I could, I would go up to each of your homes, ring the bell and say thanks.

Turns out that all the folks in Hidden Hills got together and complained to city officials about the filming going on at Denise Richards' home. I guess that in addition to just a general dislike of Denise they also hate having production crews all over their swank neighborhood. So, what is an "actress" to do? Why move of course. Denise has put her home up for sale. Now, if I recall she used to own two on the same street, but is now down to one which she has priced at $4.2M.

Yes, for just $4.2M you to can live in the house Denise Richards called home. I personally think that because she lived there the price should drop considerably. Not like a Hale Bopp house price drop but still, I'm thinking maybe it is worth just four or five dollars.

Now, you may be asking yourself what all of this has to do with Denise moving out of Los Angeles. Well, I'm glad you asked. See, in addition to disliking the filming, apparently the neighbors got tired of the noise that 14 dogs at one house causes and so they complained to the LA County Animal Control who ordered Denise to get a kennel license. No, not for her, but for the dogs. Denise was not pleased about this and so wants to get out of LA County's jurisdiction which means she will be some other county's problem.

So, to all the people in Hidden Hills. Thank You.

Are The Chosen Ones OK?

I got an e-mail from a reader last night who asked me how come no one is asking why the hell Angelina Jolie is in the hospital? I presume it is because to speak to Angelina, one must first be blessed, but it could be because no news is just that, no news.

This is really more for all of you because, frankly my knowledge of pregnancy began and ended with the story of the stork. Oh sure, I know the basic theory and all that, but theory is all it is. Add that to the fact that I can just drive by a hospital and pass out and I'm not much help.

To get the conversation started about whether Angelina or her chosen ones are in some sort of mortal peril or just enjoying hospital food is the original e-mail from the reader, who also happens to be a nurse. She makes great points. So speculate away as to why the tabloids have been so quiet about this.

Oh, before I turn it over to the reader. How about this little extra piece of conspiracy. Is everyone convinced that the photo above is really Brad and Angelina?

********What brings me to write, though, is something that's been bothering me for a couple of weeks now. I cannot be the only medical person in the entire universe that knows that there is no way that Angelina is in the hospital because she had a previous c-section.

There is something wrong, either with her health or the babies' health. Everyone acts as if that French doctor is the Pope of Doctors or something. He said that she's in the hospital a few weeks (or a month) before her due date because she had a previous c-section, so it must be true.

Uh, excuse me? How many women, even divas, do you know that just hole themselves up into a hospital for a few weeks or a month before they have their kid? Hospitals are no fun. They're really no fun for me, because I work in one, but they're even less fun for the patients. Being pregnant and in a hospital is the pits. Even if you're rich and have your food brought in, and your servants cater to your every little need, hospitals are no fun. They are especially no fun if you love your four other children and would like to be a parent to them, instead of laying around in a hospital bed, pregnant as a cow, waiting for the day when you can bring your two new progeny into the world.

My job is to run the hospital on a day to day basis--I basically troubleshoot operational problems. I hear about every unit in the hospital, including labor and delivery and High Risk Maternity, and I've never heard of a mother checking in a few weeks or a month before her due date, unless she and/or her babies were sick--no matter how rich she was or how spoiled. Even moms who can and would pay for months and months of private hospitalization wouldn't do that because NO ONE wants to spend their pregnancy in a hospital. So I can't believe no one has brought this up.

Either no one is willing to say the Empress Has No Clothes or no one has figured it out, or there's some reason that no one wants to tell what is obviously the truth. I don't wish Angelina any harm, nor her babies, obviously, but it does seem odd that no one wants to point out the obvious. Either Angelina or her twins or all of them are sick and require hospitalization. It could be something as innocuous as premature contractions or early ruptured membranes to something as serious as pre-eclampsia or placenta previa, or oligohydramnios (low amniotic fluid) or God forbid, hydrops (the baby gets fluid overloaded and could die from that) or some congenital anomalies. Any multiple pregnancy (twins, triplets, quads) increases maternal and baby risk factors, so it isn't unusual for this to happen. What just seems downright weird to me is that no one is even talking about it.

Secrets Secrets

Do you remember Keanu Reeves hitting some pap back in March 2007? I don't either, but Keanu allegedly drove his Porsche into a pap in a parking lot. So, things being how they are here in the US, the pap sued Keanu. Keanu has been delaying this thing as long as possible and it isn't even scheduled to go trial until October of this year.

Anyway as part of the process, Keanu had his deposition taken. Now in a case like this I'm sure that all kinds of personal questions were asked of Keanu like if he had been drinking or taking drugs or listening to The Carpenters on the radio while he was driving. Whatever they asked and I'm sure the pap's lawyers asked everything, the answers must have been nice and juicy. How juicy? Well Keanu's lawyers got the deposition and the video taken at the deposition sealed from the public. Only the attorneys from both sides will get to see it.

Now, the interesting thing here is that normally the deposition is used to gather evidence, but it is also used as backup in case Keanu would decide that maybe he wanted to change his story while on the stand. Now, although the deposition was sealed, the trial in October as it stands would be open to the public and presumably the exact same juicy questions would be asked in the trial. So why the sealing of it you ask?

Very good question. My guess is that there won't be a trial and that Keanu is going to end up writing the guy a check and wants any and all records of whatever was asked hidden away for good. It just doesn't make any sense to seal a deposition and then have a public trial with the same questions being asked.

Next Time Look At A Catalog First

Now, I don't know about you, but if were planning to spend $50,000 or so remodeling my kitchen, I think I might look at some color samples, perhaps some photos, and if available a showroom to help me make such major decisions. Apparently that isn't the way things work in the Grammer household. Kelsey Grammer is being sued for about $150,000 because he failed to pay the company that remodeled his kitchen. Three times. That's right, the company totally remodeled the kitchen three times because it seems Kelsey's wife couldn't be bothered to make the effort to find out how it would look prior to the installation.

There was nothing wrong with the work performed. There were no drunk guys ransacking the house looking for sex tapes to sell. Nope. The only problem seemed to be that Camille didn't like the color. Not the first time, the second time or the third time. After the third time the company just gave up.

Hey, Camille this isn't telling your husband to move the couch twenty times so you can get a better angle to see yourself in the mirror. This is a project that took about two weeks each time. Two weeks and $50,000 and she couldn't bother figuring out if she was going to like the color before they put it in. It's not like she uses the damn kitchen in the first place. Do you honestly believe that Camille has ever heated anything in that kitchen other than possibly microwaving some wax to for her stache?

It's people like Camille that give celebrities and their spouses a bad name. That and the fact that they think because they are not "everyday people" that they can go ahead and stiff the company for the work as well.

Today's Blind Items

If I gave you these names you would say, "oh, I love them. They are so innocent and fun." Well that wasn't always the case. The actor is B list. Probably C list name recognition and A when it comes to facial recognition. The actress is A list on television for sure, and B+ list in films. Each of the two is married. When this occurred both were together with their respective spouses, but NOT married to them yet. Oh, both have at least one child. On set romance. Both professed their undying love to their significant others but spent every possible second they could having sex. The only time they ever stopped was during the actual filming and when their significant others paid a visit to the set.

Random Photos Part One - With A Reader Photo

I know, I know, but I'm fascinated with the Johnsons. There was some confusion last time I posted a photo of Jesse, so wanted to make it clear this time. Jesse, who is on the left is the half brother to Dakota who is on the right. Left, right, it doesn't matter. I want more of them. Why can't I have 26 episodes of the Johnsons instead of Ashley Dupre?
Wow. It is a really good thing you are safe America. Actually this is on the set of Ugly Betty so she has an excuse. It is on the set, right?
I'm too scared to go to wiki. Why do you ask? This singer's name is Algebra and I know I will fall out of my chair laughing if she has any brothers or sisters named Geometry or English or Subjects I Failed in High School.
I'm guessing Anne Hathaway is either doing the mating call of a favorite bird or, what her ex-boyfriend is doing in prison right now.
It's a Backstreet Boy. I know, I know, but honestly there aren't very many good photos today. I wish someone who shall remain nameless but saw Vanna White and Kim Kardashian at lunch together yesterday would have taken a photo and then we could just discuss that all day. But, they didn't and so we are left staring at a photo of a Backstreet Boy.
Do you get the feeling that the only time Corey Feldman actually gets to touch his wife is when there are cameras rolling? It's like he's holding on to a life jacket.

Nice of Jake Gyllenhaal to dress for dinner.

I'm guessing that Hilary Duff woke up yesterday and decided she wanted to be noticed by the world.
I didn't even recognize Elizabeth Hurley. I don't know if it is the fact she had to venture out during the day or if she got a bunch of work done in the last week or so. (I know. Timing isn't right) This is not the same person we saw last week at Elton's house. Maybe they hired a look-a-like.

Ahh, there is Kim. The joke would have worked much better if she was under Chris, but hey, we all make mistakes. Kim's mistake is that she thinks the people of Italy will be more impressed with her if she bends completely over to allow a clear look down her dress.

Drew Barrymore Finishes Playing With Her Toy

I think all of us could see this one coming from the first time that Drew Barrymore and Justin Long went out. In what should not come as news to anyone, Drew Barrymore's publicist told the world yesterday that Drew and Justin were done. Well considering that most toys break long before this, I'm actually surprised that she held on this long. Justin presumably has a busted heart. See, Justin thought this was going to be more than just a dating thing. Every time I saw a photo of the two of them together you could just see the puppy dog expression on his face and know this was going to end badly.

To me, and to anyone that I talked to about this, they could all see what apparently Justin could not. Drew was just out to have fun and Justin wanted more. It doesn't have to be a celebrity relationship. I'm sure that all of you see this everyday. It is what happens when someone makes an emotional commitment and the other person doesn't. Justin fell hard and is probably crushed. Drew, on the other hand is probably looking for another guy as we speak and is going to have some more fun.

I think this is pretty similar to the Kate Hudson and Owen Wilson situation. Kate was in the having fun mode and Owen was in the lovestruck, and then get heart crushed kind of mode. I don't think and certainly hope that Justin will not react the same way, but I also have lost a little respect and love for Drew.

I think that if all of us could see this coming, that Drew herself should have known it was happening and maybe distanced herself from it or found a new plaything before it got this far. I also am wondering, and perhaps speculating whether Drew is changing as a person. It seems as if every time we see a photo of her when she is not on a set that she is drinking, and I wonder if this is maybe the reason she had blinders on when it came to Justin's feelings.

I'm totally Team Justin on this one.

Sex In A Cage

The headline sounds more dramatic than the actual story, but it still is a good one. Sacha Baron Cohen was at it again. Allegedly. In a very strange scene in Arkansas, a cage fight was held last month, but instead of two guys trying to kill each other, what instead happened was two men ripping off each others' clothing and then making out with each other passionately.

Apparently, the people in Texarkana were promised a cage fight. Admission was free and there was dollar beer for the crowd. Can I just take a second to say how much I love any event that offers $1 beer. If the ballet suddenly started offering $1 beer I think you would find that not only would more men attend the ballet but would be encouraging their wives to buy season tickets.

When patrons were admitted to the fight, there were signs that said they would be filmed and each person had to sign a waiver before they were admitted. Despite this though, the people seemed might pissed to find two guys who came perilously close to crossing the morality code of the city. Police were told in advance what would happen but were unprepared for the onslaught of the dollar beer into the cage and at each other. Again, I think the ballet might be more enjoyable to all if the dancers had to duck out of the way of a solo cup filled with beer. Of course this wouldn't just be random throwing of beer because hey, even at a buck, it is beer. No, you have it all wrong my friends. The beer would be thrown judiciously and only in cases of an Allegro that lacked effort or a failure on the part of the dancers to demonstrate ballon. I think performances would only get better. The occasional injury from slipping on a wet stage would be offset by the fact that the dancers would know a cold $1 beer is waiting for them as they get that leg popped back into place.

Now, back to Arkansas. Apparently the crowd was in such a bad mood about the display that it took police about 45 minutes to clear the convention center. Meanwhile the two fighters had departed through a specially built tunnel so they would not have to cross the path of the audience. Hey, audience. It was free to get in and there was $1 beer. You got to get out of the house for a night and hang out with your friends. What are you complaining about? Are you upset they didn't fight or that they didn't go all the way?

50 Cent Wants Us To Know He's A Good Dad

50 Cent wants the world to know he isn't a bad dad and that he cares a bunch for his son. Uh huh. In an interview with MTV.com, Fiddy says that he's afraid all of this negative publicity has strained the relationship with his son. Oh realllllly? You don't think maybe the fact that you wanted to kick your son out of the house he had been growing up in and putting he and his mom out on the street had anything to do with it?

Maybe I'm an idiot. OK, don't answer that one. It seems to me though that if my dad wanted to basically make me and my mom homeless as well as my brothers and sisters that I might be feeling a little negative towards him. I don't think it has anything to do with mom and dad not getting along. That happens. What is unusual is that Fiddy has gone to great lengths to make sure that his son doesn't have a place to call home. Forget the fact that the kid has lived in the same house and gone to the same school and hung out with the same kids for as long as he can remember, 50 just wants him to know that he loves him.

Awww, isn't that nice. From what I remember, the restraining order that Fiddy's ex got against 50 Cent doesn't preclude 50 from seeing his son. Instead of actually seeing his son though or trying to contact him, he instead says things like "I think he doesn't want his mum to feel like he's a traitor. ...The time I spent away is the time he developed this thing he's afraid to break with her. There's nothing you can do about that. This is the toughest (thing I've had to face), because he's my motivation."

He thinks? What? He hasn't even tried to call his son? If he had, I think he would have said that he had called his son and was talking to him all the time and that his son just doesn't feel right about it right now. There is no such quote because I'm betting 50 hasn't even tried to call or get in touch. My guess is that 50 decided to use his ability to get an interview with MTV to spin his side of the story in the most possible light. Because of that you and I both know if he had spoken to his kid, he would have said it repeatedly. He didn't and his actions in that regard and that of trying to make his kid homeless show his real feelings and actions.

50 Cent has more money than almost anyone in the world and so what does it matter to him if he has to let his kid and ex stay in one of his homes? Would he even notice they are there? I'm sure the house is paid for, and he is going to have to pay support no matter what. So, what he is really showing the world is that he is a selfish ass who doesn't want to live up to the responsibilities he has brought upon himself. If he really wants to make things right and look good, he should run out and buy them a great house in the same neighborhood, do what he can to repair the relationship with his son, and then shut the hell up about it to the media.

Power Couple?

So, last night I was surfing through the television, because, hey that is what I do. It was about midnight and there really wasn't anything on. Oh sure, there was porn, but for one night I decided to take the Donger's advice.

Anyway, as I was surfing through the channels I came upon Tori Spelling's show. I wasn't going to watch it, but when I saw the summary of the episode, I just had to.

I don't remember the entire summary, but I do remember the first few words of it. "The power couple's efforts to buy a home..."

Excuse me, I must have missed about 20 years in time. Did someone actually use the term power couple to describe Tori and Dean? Power couple as in someone with power? I must be confused because I thought power couples had to have power to make people other than their kids and dogs do something.

If I ask you to name a Hollywood power couple, Tori and Dean aren't at the top of your list. Hell, they aren't even on your list. I would be surprised if you could even remember their names to include on a list. Bert & Ernie are a bigger power couple. If those two puppets strike, an entire network is going down. If Tori and Dean go on strike, then basically any two people in LA who can mumble and call each other mama and papa could fill in.

Obviously the producers of the show must love to kiss ass which would account for the description. If I were Tori and Dean I would be embarrassed, not only about the show which has quite possibly the worst editing in the history of reality television, but just because I can't imagine anyone wanting to or caring about how they live their life.

Whoever Has The Most Cash Wins

So did you New Yorkers hear the good news? Ashley Dupre is moving to Los Angeles. I know, I know, no longer will you have to worry about running into her while you are around town and then wondering to yourself if the guy she is with paid her. No, instead she can come out here with Denise and Kim and it will be like old home week.

The reason Ashley is coming out here is because people are interested in making a reality show with her. I guess the good times of Tila Tequila are over and the powers that be are tired of seeing her naked and so they are bringing in Tila's replacement. Another dating show from someone who we really don't care about. Just what reality television needs. Anyway, I don't really see the point of a dating show starring Ashley since it is pretty obvious that the guy who has the most cash in his wallet at the time they meet automatically wins.

I mean is there any chance that true love could come out of this? I'm not saying that a man or woman would not, could not, or should not fall in love with someone who sells sex for money. It happens and, hey I'm a romantic. What I am saying though is what person on national television with YouTube around the world is going to profess his love in public for her? All of his friends will be asking if she charges extra on the weekends.

What I really think they need to do is take all the dating winners. Bachelor, Bachelorette, Flavor Flav, New York, Bret Michaels, Average Joe. All of them. Take all the winners from each show and just throw them in a house together. Mix them and match them. Speed dating, overnight dating, threesome dating. Whatever it takes for 30 days. We would all get to see old favorites and with people looking for true love as opposed to winning something good might actually happen.

#1 - This vegetarian A list rock star has been on and off with his baby mama. She thinks they are on. He apparently thinks they are off as he was off with this former B list actress from a hit television show who loves taking care of strangers in the park.

#2 - This singer/actress who seems equally known for both, but it has been awhile since there has been a hit song. Hell, it has been awhile since she had a hit movie too. I guess she would be about C list on the scale of acting but definitely A list name recognition. Anyway, she just broke up with her longtime boyfriend. Just one of those things or did that certain UFC fighter she spends so much time hanging around possibly have something to do with it.

Random Photos Part One - With Last Minute Reader Photos

Stevie Wonder and his daughter and son. Top spot material all the way.
Didn't take Balthazar Getty long to take that wedding ring off. Do I see a tan line there?
I want you all to know that I will admit when I am wrong. Therefore I want you to know that I didn't think it was possible for someone to be more ugly than Criss Angel. Pamela Anderson has proved me wrong. I hope you will forgive me for my error.
Speaking of errors. No, I won;t say anything about David Spade, at least not here. Goodness you would have thought he was a teen superstar the way I got angry e-mail by the boatloads when I snarked on him before. Of course it could have just been David doing it.

Dolly Parton - London
Dwayne Johnson looks really good here. Stiff, but good.
Duran Duran - Liverpool
10cc - Charlbury
This is a first time appearance for Kellan Lutz. I had to put the guy in. There has to be some kind of attention for having the guts to wear that outfit in public.

Kevin Costner gave an interview after making his kid cry by performing with his band over the weekend. Kevin said he liked to "ride with Buffalo bareback." I know, I know, but apparently he meant he rides them like a horse.
It's been a few months since Jamie Pressley made an appearance. She looks fantastic.
Although I know it was planned in advance, it still made me laugh.
George Clinton - Detroit
Are people so desperate in this world that they will actually date Michael Lohan anyway? Seriously, with everything you know about him and have heard about him, you would still date him and let your photo be taken with him?

Mary J. Blige - New Orleans
This is allegedly an edible bed. First of all, I can't imagine eating that much in one sitting and second, I don't see the Ranch dressing dispenser in the headboard.
Don't know who it is? What about if I said, "All around the world." Lisa Stansfield. OK, now go YouTube her.
Well I don't call it random photos for nothing. Noel Gallagher actually got an award that night in case you are wondering why his head seems even larger than normal.
Peter Murphy - Ft. Lauderdale

Who knew so many of you loved Peter Krause?
One Night Only - Abersoch, Wales
Neil Young - Roskilde, Denmark
So, now that Mandy Moore is single again, what do you think the odds are that her dream guy is 400 pounds and lives at home with his parents? Hey, I could knock out a wall and least make a separate entrance to make her feel more at ease. Sneaking out through the kitchen gets old after awhile.
Rafael Nadal at the Wimbledon Ball.

Russell Brand and his girlfriend Teresea Palmer. I know, Phoebe Price must have been crushed. Of course it might not last long if Teresa reads what Russell is saying about her. Apparently having Teresa Palmer as your girlfriend isn't cheap.
The Queen of Sweden takes aim at the seagull that stole her caviar.
And then tries to explain to the child that it was all a joke. **note** It is a joke. As far as I know the Queen was just trying to start a race. The fact that she killed this girl's parents while doing it was just an accident.
Save this one for the photo album to show the kid.
Ahhh, it's reader photo time. These all came in after the deadline, but hey, I'm not the IRS here. I don't care. I do know that the reader in this photo must be the one on the right because do you think there is any way in hell that Melanie Griffith reads this site? Dakota? Hell yes. Melanie? Nope.

Reader #2 and hey, she just got a new job as an on air personality in Pennsylvania. So, make sure to crank call her station whenever you have a free second or two.

Reader #3. Another Canadian. Have I told you that I feel like I should just move there, or at least invite the entire country to my block and have a party. You bring the beer though.
A Brazilian and a wedding. Is this the first reader photo from a wedding?
Yeah, yeah, our reader took the photo with Chris Osgood. Let the rants begin.
And last, but definitely not least, a very lovely reader closes it out.

So, on Wireimage, you can be who you want to be. Actor, actress, musician. Whatever, it doesn't matter. They will call you what you request. What did diddilypiddily request this weekend? Get ready for it. Empresario Sean Combs. Seriously. I guess that is what you call a guy who takes a shot at the teenager while he was his baby mama.

All the Anne Hathaway photos, but I have been neglecting Steve Carell. Sorry Steve.
The German answer to Aaron Carter. Wilson Gonzalez Ochsenknecht. Yeah, I know, with a name like that he better enjoy this shot at the photos.

Billy Baldwin not looking that great.
The young Knives - Abersoch, Wales
I have seen four year old kids with bigger legs than Tamsin Egerton.
Is it just me or does Katie Holmes look the worst you have ever seen her? Those bags under her eyes are huge. Lets not forget here that she is only 29. P.S. How about letting the kid walk sometimes?

Heroin And 7-11 - Hey They Rhyme

In an interview with Blender this month, Jack Black talks about the one and only time he did heroin. In the interview he doesn't say whether he smoked it or injected it, but did say the drug didn't agree with him.

"It didn't agree with me. I couldn't really feel my legs, and my heart felt like it was slowing down too much. I thought, 'Oh my God, it's going to shut me down. I'm going to die.'

"I went down to the 7-Eleven at the bottom of the hill, and I had this strange sensation that my legs were pumping, but the feet were just sort of lifeless stumps.

"I did a little shopping and then walked back up the hill and survived. And never did it again."

I can't believe he actually had the energy to go out and go shopping. Although he says that this was his one time doing heroin, one has to wonder how he got to that point. People don't usually just sit around drinking beers and ask, "hey you got any heroin? I sure would like to try some."

It is something that someone usually builds up to, especially if they inject it. Although I don't doubt that he just did it once, I do doubt the story. I think he could be just saying it for some kind of cool factor. Not that it is cool to use heroin. It is just kind of an odd story. The cool drugs taken by the edgy comedian who gets the munchies which never happens on heroin. I don't know. I can just imagine Jack sitting around and asking himself how he can be edgy and cool and rockstar-ish while at the same time being his Kung Fu Panda self.

I Got You Babe

You may want to throw away your television after you hear about this one. Seems that Fox thought it would be a good idea to let the Osbournes do a variety show ala Sonny and Cher. Yep, for at least six hours, the people of the world will be treated to Ozzy Osbourne singing I got You Babe each week with Sharon Osbourne and Jack and Kelly pairing off singing I'm A Little Bit Country. Ahh, television just doesn't get much more entertaining.

The crazy thing is FOX won the right to air the show after a bidding war ensued. Look, I enjoyed the first season of their show on MTV, but it was more because I wanted a look inside their life. I really have no desire to remember Ozzy Osbourne as a guy who embarrasses what is left of his career by watching him sing with a bunch of people headed for The Surreal Life or to watch him read cue cards as they do sketches. The only way on earth I would watch the show is if it were live with no 7 second delay. Now, that would be entertaining.

As it is though, I can just see Ozzy coming out in some Elvis jumpsuit or Kelly and Jack in matching sequined outfits trying to get themselves a little more money and restarting their 15 minute clock. Speaking of which, here is a question for you. Does the 15 minute clock start again or does it just get stretched out? I think we would all agree that Jack had his 15 minutes. Does this now mean that his clock is reset back to 14:30, or because in fact there will be another show he is entitled to more than 15 minutes?

15 minutes I can handle. Six one hour episodes sounds like torture. Oh, and if you think I'm making some kind of sick joke about the whole Donny and Marie or Sonny & Cher takeoff, think again. Fox in their press release said that is exactly how they envision this show. Do you get the feeling that Ozzy has no idea what he is being asked to do and that Sharon is just going to lead him into a set somewhere and have him start reading or singing what she tells him to do?

Daily Mirror Blind Item

Which celeb insists on having his flunkies dust down his hotel suite with a white glove before he enters? But after a couple of drinks the sweaty star has no idea where he is anyway...

Sarah Larson Pregnant?

So, on Friday night in Vegas, Sarah Larson was supposed to be at the opening of Christian Audigier's nightclub there, which is named Christian Audiegier. Small penis anyone?

Anyway, Sarah Larson, the former girlfriend of George Clooney who this weekend said it is really hard work to look sexy 24 hours a day, was at one point supposed to be the new face of Christian Audiegier's clothing line. I don't know if this was contingent on her putting out or a breast reduction or what, but I do know she was supposed to be in Vegas on Friday.

Well, lo and behold Sarah wasn't there. Nope. Instead she was in San Diego hiding out and instead of getting ready to be the new face of small penis dude, she instead is sitting in San Diego pregnant. I know, I know it does seem kind of odd that she would first get pregnant at all, and then second, that it would be that quick. I mean how heartbroken could she be if she is already knocked up with some guy's baby, and third, it isn't exactly like job offers are everywhere so you would think she would keep this one. I mean come on. The guy has a nightclub named after him. Those always work don't they? I mean just ask Paris Hilton. Oh, what? Oh, it's closing. Didn't know that. Well, lets just pretend I didn't write that last sentence and speculate as to why Sarah didn't show up where the money is.

Oh, unless she is pregnant by someone good or involved in a Verne Troyer 3some, I think this is the last of Sarah Larson.

Nicole Richie Is Starting To Get Warm

I feel it. I can see where this is headed and I am so ready. I need a little drama from Nicole Richie. I have some money riding on this and think that given just enough rope she can get arrested or go to rehab or just do something really fun. I don't want her to do anything destructive, I just need some drama from her.

So, lets go back about 18 months. You know she had the arrest and the was really messed up and then she got pregnant. She was great during the pregnancy, but you can see that she is starting to go out more now. Over the weekend she got into a fight for no good reason with another woman at the valet stand. I will say that she did go home at 2am which is not bad. Maybe she was pissed that Joel made her go home at 2am while Parasite and the other brother got to stay and party. Anyway, Nicole and some other woman were arguing about who had the uglier hair extensions and then next thing you know Nicole was being shown the door at the Hard Rock. Do you know what it takes to get kicked out of a hotel where your baby daddy just got done playing a gig? That is classic, and I can see more coming.

If Joel goes out of town and Nicole can find a sitter than I see one hell of a night and I can win that bet.

Conspiracy Theory Of The Day

So, by now I'm sure you have heard that Nicole Kidman spawned. She gave birth to a daughter and I think the name is some type of code. I know, I know, but I just think that it is really strange that Nicole chose the name Sunday Rose.

Yes, it was Nicole who chose the name. Do any of you honestly think Keith Urban makes any decisions in the family? Seriously? He doesn't. He just says uh-huh a whole lot.

So, when Suri was born, Tom Cruise released a statement saying that the name Suri meant red rose. So, why on earth if you are Nicole Kidman would you name your child the same damn thing as your ex's kid, only in English instead of in the butchered Hebrew that Tom used. Suri doesn't mean rose, but Tom thought it did. I also thought that that the one activity everyone associates with Sundays other than recovering from massive hangover and football is in fact church. I'm going with that one because Suri was allegedly born on a Tuesday. If it was a Sunday, then call up Coast to Coast and start playing that Twilight Zone music.

And finally, although Nicole had to stick her bony Kidman name in there, if you go with the traditional initials, the name of the new baby is SRU. Looks as close to Suri as you can get without the i.

Sure, this is maybe just a coincidence. Fine, I can accept that. But, think about this. If you allegedly had the worst divorce ever and you aren't allowed to see your kids and you were allegedly miserable, wouldn't you name your daughter Fred or something? Anything to make sure it totally stood apart from your ex's kid's name?

It just seems freaking odd to me and wonder if she got a big check or something. Like I said, it's a conspiracy theory.

Madonna Was An Excuse

I don't really care about the whole Alex Rodriguez and Cindy Rodriguez story but figure since the entire planet has taken a shot, I might as well get mine in as well. So, C-Rod filed for divorce today and alleges that A-Rod's affairs were the reason. Well considering he has been photographed at least three or four different times with strippers and hookers in his team hotels I would say that is true.

However, in my mind the whole Madonna thing is just a ruse. See, as much as she would have you believe she is little Ms. Innocence, C-Rod wasn't exactly the most faithful of wives either. This time though instead of some teammate of A-Rod who will keep quiet, you got yourself a rock star. Oh, he is going to dump you for sure, but right now you are in looooooooooove and you want to be able to get your freak on without having crap rained down on you. What can you do?

Hey, guess what, A-Rod and Madonna went out to dinner. Everyone thinks they are having sex, so lets blame her. I don't actually think Madonna and A-Rod had sex. Tell me why A-Rod would have sex with a 50 year old has been of a celebrity. It just didn't happen. Dinner? Yep, and Madonna is probably wondering what the hell kind of mess she has stepped into now.

Screaming at everyone to just shut the hell up so she can save her own marriage which is hanging by a thread in one corner and trying to deal with being called a homewrecker by C-Rod's lawyer in another corner. Oh, and over in another room, she has her brother selling secrets in his new book.

I never thought I would actually feel sorry for Madonna. Ehh, actually I don't. I just dislike A-Rod and C-Rod and really like Guy Ritchie and hope he is at least getting a laugh out of all this.

NY Daily News Blind Item

Which professional athlete who's well known for playing the field with famous ladies is comforting the estranged wife of a fellow athlete as the couple goes through a divorce? The comforting was recently ratcheted up to a full-blown affair, despite the fact that he is very involved with an A-list starlet. Thankfully, the ladies live in separate states.
